The Artist Formerly Known as Hootie

Recently I've been doing a lot of work for a local radio station, 94.9 The Bull, and Thursday night I headed up to Gwinnett Arena to shoot the Brad Paisley concert. I wasn't very excited because all of my experience thus far with the Arena has been shooting from the sound booth at the back of the house floor and there really isn't a whole lot of variety in pictures taken from a stationary point 200 feet away from your subject. To my surprise I was able to get into the pit area for this show and had a perfect vantage point while Darius Rucker was on stage for the opening act. I'm incredibly proud of this shot and I'm still not 100% why but it just stands out to me.

Bill + Allie

When time is short and your only in town for a few days to see family, propose, and then head back to new york, catching a nice day outside in the middle of winter in Georgia is not an easy thing to do. It actually Bill, Allie, and myself two tries as our original photo shoot came with a heavy and cold rain storm right as we rolled up to the park. Fortunately though we lucked out and caught a gorgeous afternoon a few days later. Congratulations Bill and Allie and I can't wait for the wedding!

Leahna + Earl

This has to be one of the most fun shoots I've ever been on. Leahna and Earl were naturals and really I just followed them around town while they did their thing. Okay that's a lie, I had to ask them to pose a few times but it was only a few. Did I mention they have the potential to be Mr and Mrs Young-Shorty? It probably wont happen from what they tell me but it would be pretty awesome. The wedding isn't until next fall so I know they have some planning to do but its going to be a slammin' party from what I hear. Congrats guys!
